单元综合检测(二) Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2.5分；满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Having lived in California until 1970，my family has felt a number of earthquakes.We have been fortunate，however，to have suffered no bodily harm or property damage. There is a website that lists all California earthquakes recorded from 1769 to the present.The site lists the dates and times as well as the magnitude(震级)and the exact location of any quake that measured more than 6.0.There are only a few quakes that stand out in my memory and，luckily，none is shown in the website.So，my personal experience with earthquakes might be considered insignificant. There are three earthquakes that are difficult to forget.The first one was in 1955 and our oldest daughter was walking with me in our backyard in Redwood City in California.As the shaking became stronger I held her to me with one arm as I held on to one of our fruit trees with the other.All three of us (my daughter，I and the tree)shook for two or three minutes that to us felt like hours. The second one was in 1963.Our entire family was visiting Disneyland in Southern California.The earth started to shake just as we were beginning to walk from our hotel toward the famous landmark． My third experience with an earthquake was a lonely one in California.It was in my sixties and I was alone in an old church.As the building started to shake，I quickly headed for the door to go outside.I remember I said a little prayer—something like，“Help me get out of here in time，Dear Heavenly Father”．Minutes later，I was safe outside. 【语篇解读】　本文为记叙文，作者回忆了自己经历的三次地震。 1．The author writes the passage mainly to tell us about________． A．a new film about an earthquake B．how to survive an earthquake C．his three earthquake experiences D．how to save children in an earthquake C　[写作意图题。作者主要是向读者介绍了自己经历的三次地震。] 2．The earthquakes the author has experienced________． A．all caused bodily harm B．are all recorded in a website C．all measured more than 6.0 D．all happened in California D　[细节
